What's the best way to clean tarnished sterling silver jewelry and silverware?
I like the aluminum foil, baking soda and hot water methodPlace a sheet of aluminum foil in a glass pyrex or other baking dish deep enough to accomodate the silverwarePut in 1/2 cup baking soda and cover the items to be cleaned with boiling hot waterDry the items immediately once the tarnish is removed to prevent the water spots from tarnishing quickly.
